2014 Renault Captur 1.5L Diesel · DL64 ACZ

The 2014 Renault Captur demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with no defects recorded in its last four MOT tests, including the most recent 2025-12-08 inspection at 75,550 miles. The vehicle has maintained a consistent pass record since 2022, with no recurring mechanical or structural issues flagged. The 2022-12-12 test, which initially failed despite no defects being noted, appears to be an anomaly, as subsequent assessments show no deterioration. This suggests the car has been well-maintained, with no emerging risks to safety or compliance. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 12-year-old vehicle, averaging 6,296 miles annually. The records show gradual accumulation, with no abrupt spikes or prolonged inactivity periods. From 56,069 miles in 2022 to 75,550 miles in 2025, the car has been driven consistently, reducing concerns about corrosion from standing or excessive wear from heavy use. The absence of advisories for tyres, brakes, or suspension in recent tests indicates the previous owner prioritized routine checks, though older components may still require scrutiny. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, common wear items on 12-year-old vehicles, and check brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or corrosion. The exhaust system and underbody should be examined for rust, particularly around the chassis rails and wheel arches, as these areas are prone to degradation. While the MOT history shows no critical failures, the car’s age necessitates a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm the integrity of high-mileage components and address any latent issues not captured in the recorded tests.
